“Children of the Kremlin” is a continuation of the book “Kremlin Wives.” In it, the veil is lifted over some unclear pages of the history of V. I. Lenin’s family. It tells about the fates of the children of Kamenyev, Gamarnik, Stalin, Voroshilov, Kaganovich, Beria, Mikoyan, Budyonny, Khrushchev, Gorky, and many others. How were they different from ordinary children of the country, what did they have in common, and can they all together be called the Kremlin children—because what happened behind the red walls concerned every person?
The author of the world bestseller `Kremlin Wives` writer Larisa Vasileva continues her famous book with a new work, `Children of the Kremlin`, revealing many secrets of the past decades. In one way or another, we are all Kremlin children, because what takes place behind the walls of the Kremlin concerns each of us. In past centuries, the Kremlin children were princes and princesses. Some of them, having grown up, took the throne. The 20th century changed everything. What became of the children of Kamenyev, Stalin, Budyonny, Kaganovich, Khrushchev, and many other arbiters of our people’s fate? What did the Kremlin give them and what did it take away?
